About the North Carolina Homestead Exemption Law
 Licensed to practice law in the state of 
North Carolina, Mack Hewett is an 
experienced attorney who owns a self-titled 
law firm. Mack Hewett handles cases 
related to estate planning, elder law, and 
real estate law. 
During financial hardships, homeowners 
may fear losing their home to bankruptcy. 
In such cases, the North Carolina 
homestead exemption law has the ability to 
protect homeowners and the equity in their 
homes.
 The state regulation is applicable to real 
and personal property, which includes 
single-family homes and condominiums. The 
person seeking an exemption must be the 
resident of the state and live in the home at 
the time the bankruptcy was filed. 
Fortunately, individuals in jeopardy of a 
bankruptcy do not have to file a separate 
declaration of exemption, as the law 
automatically applies to all homeowners 
meeting the previous stipulations.
 North Carolina homeowners can 
individually be exempt of up to $35,000 
of their property; married couples filing 
jointly are eligible for an exemption of up 
to twice that amount. Citizens 65 years of 
age and older and widowed qualify for 
$60,000 under the homestead 
exemption.
